Subject: what httrack does when files are moved/redirected

Another of my projects finishes just fine, but leaves me 
with a few questions/comments on operation.
Project: <http://thestarman.narod.ru/>

When it finishes, hts-log.txt has recorded this error:
22:41:57 Warning:  Error for 
www.wdc.com/support/download/dlg/dlgdiag.zip
22:41:57 Warning:  Warning moved treated for 
www.wdc.com/support/download/dlg/dlgdiag.zip (real one is 
support.wdc.com/download/dlg/dlgdiag.zip)

The related entry in new.txt is:
22:41:05	148/170	---M--	301	error ('Error')
	text/html	
	www.wdc.com/support/download/dlg/dlgdiag.zip
	I:/web-archive%20problematic/thestarman.narod.ru%
2020030115/www.wdc.com/support/download/dlg/dlgdiag.zip
	(from thestarman.narod.ru/asm/mbr/WIPE.html)

When I browse the saved local mirror, I see that the 
dlgdiag.zip file has been saved in this folder: 
\thestarman.narod.ru 20030115
\www.wdc.com\support\download\dlg



Is this intended?  Should the file be saved at the location 
it was (incorrectly) called at or at the location it 
currently is at?  The difference here is the file would be 
saved in 'support.wdc.com\download\dlg' instead 
of 'www.wdc.com\support\download\dlg'

This may be more of a philosophical than practical 
issue...I myself right now tend to say the file should be 
saved in the most accurate location for the current time, 
even if it means rewriting the calling page's A HREF URL a 
bit more.

But before this, I think the keep-alive problem should be 
found...
